Happy Gatiss Wednesday!

It’s June! Happy Pride! 🏳️‍🌈 Let’s see pics of Mark portraying gay characters. He’s played quite a few, so I expect many additions.

Saved this because it is so true.

[Video description: Gritty is turning the crank on a flagpole to raise the Progress Pride Flag. He gesticulates angrily that the flag is not blowing in the wind, then gestures offscreen. The flag begins blowing. As Gritty begins raising the flag more, the camera pans out to show a man in a suit and sunglasses, looking like a stern Secret Service agent, is holding a leafblower that points at the flag. End description.]

Lestrade’s tongue in S1 and S2 reassembled. I’m doing this (again) because I watched Sherlock reruns on tv and they really were good. Lestrade was good, of course and appeared a lot.

aint it crazy how many people realize they're queer when they have the language to express how they feel and a support system to encourage self exploration????

I never stop enjoying reading this. Literally everyone's lives improves.

Ancient legends say that if you reblog this on June you get 110% gayer and stronger

[hikarisakurariver]

right at the beginning when she's like how do I help my son feel loved and accepted I'm here shouting "QUEEN YOU ALREADY DID THAT BY TAKING HIS SIDE AND LEAVING THAT NO GOOD HUSBAND FOR HAVING THE AUDACITY TO KICK YOUR BABY OUT!" And Good for her! this is the only response to a man who kicks out a child.

this will never not be important

I hope Rian Johnson gets to make as many Benoit Blanc movies as there are Agatha Christie adaptations and more. I hope Daniel Craig gets to play the dapper, enigmatic, theater gay detective Benoit Blanc until he physically can't act anymore. And I hope that role far overshadows playing James Bond for years as his artistic legacy.

Johnson is the first writer in a long time to understand that the the serial detective archetype is a trickster spirit who takes power from the violently corrupt, and gives it to a common person who has passed his tests to prove they're good of heart and would use those resources to improve the world.

Fantastic news! Rupert Graves will be one of the (many) guest stars in Series 2 of Mark Gatiss's Bookish!

[gravesdiggers]

And thanks to the Radio Times article on Bookish S2 we now know Rupert's character is called Colonel Reggie Winters (a cad's name if I ever heard one - but I stand ready to be corrected!)

I understand some of you are 19 but that is not an old man, he's 32.

Remember when joining fandom as a younger person meant lurking for a bit and figuring out the vibe and etiquette instead of coming in on day one and calling people weirdos for liking weirdo shit in the weirdo factory.
